Thanks

The easiest way to do this is along the following lines..
(1) register an XML Schema that describes the XML you wish to process with theh database.
(2). create a relational view for the top level elements and for each repeating element (element where maxOccurs > 1 in the XML Schema)
(3) Use 'insert as select' or other SQL type processing to update your relational tables from the contents of the view
It is normally recommended that you add the following annotations to the XML Schema before registering it with the database
(1) At the schema level set xdb:storeVarrayAsTable="true".
(2) At the complexType level set xdb:maintainDOM="fasle".
If you search the forum you will find a lot of examples of creating relational views of XML content stored in the XML database. Typically these examples will include key words like 'create or replace view' and 'table(xmlsequence(extract' or 'xmltable'.
Hope this helps...

How to parse XML Column and insert values into a table

Hello,
I am working on a simple project to demonstrate how to load and extract XML using SQL, I have already made a table that contains a column of XMLTYPE and loaded an XML file into it (code below)
create or replace directory XMLSRC as 'C:\XMLSRC';
drop table Inventory;
create table Inventory(Inv XMLTYPE);
INSERT INTO Inventory VALUES (XMLTYPE(bfilename('XMLSRC', 'Inventory.xml'),nls_charset_id('AL32UTF')));
select * from Inventory;
I now however need to get the XML data back out of that and loaded into a new table. Troubleshooting guides I have read online seem to only be dealing with parsing an external XML document and loading it into a table, and not what I need to do which is parse a column of XML data and load that into a table. The project trivial with simple tables containing only 3 columns.
The table that needs to be loaded is as follows:
create table InventoryOut(PartNumber Number(10), QTY Number(10), WhLocation varchar2(500));
The XML document is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataroot xmlns:od="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:officedata" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="Inventory.xsd" generated="2012-04-09T17:36:30">
<Inventory>
<PartNumber>101</PartNumber>
<QTY>12</QTY>
<WhLocation>WA</WhLocation>
</Inventory>
</dataroot>
Thank you for any help you can offer.

First of all, thank you for your help!! Still stunned that you actually took the time to write out an eample using my tables/names/etc. Thank you!!
Attached is the code, there seems to be an issue with referencing the other table, Inventory.Inv, I checked and that table and the Inv column are showing up in the database so I am not sure why it is having issues locating them, take a look at the code I wrote as well as the output (*I included the real version number for you this time :)
EDIT: In your code right here:
select xt.*
3 from Inventory inve,
4 XMLTable('/dataroot/Inventory'
5 PASSING inve.Inv
I think is where I am messing it up, perhaps not understanding fully what is going on, as you write "Inventory inve" and "inve.Inv" ---- Is inve a keyword that I am just not familiar with? I think this is where the issues lies in my code.
END EDIT
EDIT2: Well that looks like it was it, changed that to how you have it and it now works!!! Could you please explain what that few lines is doing, and what the xt.* and inve are doing? Thanks again!!!
END EDIT2
drop table InventoryOut;
create table InventoryOut (PartNumber number(10), QTY number(10), WhLocation varchar2(500));

Data from table in xml Format and Inserting it into Table

Hi All
I have table where xml data is stored in long format with xml tag know i have read the entire xml xoulmn which is xml tag and insert it into diffrent table can any suggest me the code
Thanks & Regards

I believe you are on the wrong forum. You want the XML DB forum.
See:
XML DB

Please recommend if we have options to read xml file and insert data into table without a temporary table.

SQL SERVER BULK FETCH AND INSERT/UPDATE?

Hi All,
       I am currently working with C and SQL Server 2012. My requirement is to Bulk fetch the records and Insert/Update the same in the other table with some business logic?
       How do i do this?
       Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Yogesh.B

> is there a possibility that I can do a bulk fetch and place it in an array, even inside a stored procedure ?
You can use Temporary tables or Table variables and have them indexes as well
>After I have processed my records, tell me a way that I will NOT go, RECORD by RECORD basis, even inside a stored procedure ?
As i said earlier, you can perform UPDATE these temporary tables or table variables and finally INSERT/ UPDATE your base table
>Arrays are used just to minimize the traffic between the server and the program area. They are used for efficient processing.
In your case you will first have to populate the array (Using some of your queries from the server) which means you will first load the arrary, do some updates, and then send them back to server therefore
network engagement
So I just gave you some thoughts I feel could be useful for your implementation, like we say, there are many ways so pick the one that works good for you in the long run with good scalability
Good Luck! Please Mark This As Answer if it solved your issue. Please Vote This As Helpful if it helps to solve your issue

Inserts/Updates on replicated tables Logical Standby Database ??

Hello all,
We have a Logical standby database on 10.2.0.5. Can you please suggest if there is a way we can do data inserts/updates on replicated tables ?
Can this be done by doing a alter database guard none; or alter session disable|enable guard; ?? Even if it completes succesfully , will this have any effect on replication later ?

Hi, extract data from xml file and insert into another exiting xml file

i am searching code to extract data from xml file and insert into another exiting xml file by a java program. I understood it is easy to extract data from a xml file, and how ever without creating another xml file. We want to insert the extracted data into another exiting xml file. Suggestions?
1st xml file which has two lines(text1.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xs:PrintDataRequest xmlns:xs="http://com.unisys.com/Anid"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

<xs:Person>
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://com.unisys.com/Anid file:ANIDWS.xsd">
These two lines has to be inserted in the existing another xml(text 2.xml) file(at line 3 and 4)
Regards,
bubbly

RandomAccessFile? If you know where you want to insert it.Are you sure about this? If using this, the receiving file would have to have bytes inserted that exactly match the number of bytes replaced. I'm thinking that you'll likely have to stream through the second XML with a SAX parser and copy information (or insert new information) as you stream with an XML writer of some sort.

If the files are small, you can load the target file in a DOM document, insert the data from the source file and persist the DOM.
If the files are large, you probably want to use a StAX or SAX.

On submit perform an insert on one table and an update on aother table

I am trying to perform and insert on the table one table (the wizard created my form the insert is going against the table that I created using the wizard) and on the form is on field that is also in another table. Therefore, I am trying to perform an update on one attribute of one table and a insert into another table. How do I do this in apex?

If you have used wizard to create form, then you may see a process of type 'Automatic Row Processing (DML)' in your page which will perform INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE on your form table. Here you can see APEX performs INSERT only when REQUEST is in 'INSERT, CREATE, CREATE_AGAIN, CREATEAGAIN'
So create one more PL/SQL page process which will execute at 'on Submit after validations' and write update process as follows
begin
-- pseudo table/columns
update tbl_second
set col1 = :p1_item
where pk_col = :p1_pk_item;
end;Make this process conditional so that it will perform UPDATE only when request value is in 'INSERT, CREATE, CREATE_AGAIN, CREATEAGAIN' ( i.e. only when you are inserting into your form table)
Cheers,
Hari
p.s. I think you may also need to update the second table when some-one updates your form table.

Read a csv file, fill a dynamic table and insert into a standard table

Hi everybody,
I have a problem here and I need your help:
I have to read a csv file and insert the data of it into a standard table.
1 - On the parameter scrreen I have to indicate the standard table and the csv file.
2 - I need to create a dynamic table. The same type of the one I choose at parameter screen.
3 - Then I need to read the csv and put the data into this dynamic table.
4 - Later I need to insert the data from the dynamic table into the standard table (the one on the parameter screen).
How do I do this job? Do you have an example? Thanks.

Hi,
You can use CASE staement any place where an expression is expected.
For example, in:
UPDATE table_a
SET     col1 = exp1
,       col2 = exp2
WHERE   exp3 = exp4;all the expressions are labled lke expn.
Note that table_a, col1 and col2 are not expressions: you must hard-code these names, or use dynamic SQL.
So it's okay to say:
UPDATE table_a
SET     col1 = CASE
                   WHEN db = 'development' THEN 0
                   WHEN db = 'staging'      THEN 1
               END
,       col2 = CASE
                   WHEN db = 'development' THEN NULL
                   WHEN db = 'staging'      THEN col2
               END
WHERE   db != 'production';In this example:
in the development database, col1 is set to 0 and col2 is set to NULL
in the staging database, col1 is set to 1 and col2 is unchanged (that is, set to what it already was)
in the production database, nothing is changed (the WHERE condition is always FALSE)

XML PARASE and insert /update in corresponding tables
